In this heartfelt episode, Brett sits down with a very special guest—his daughter, Hannah Jakus—who just completed her Master’s in Counseling Psychology at Trinity Western University. They talk through the highs and lows of her academic journey, including the struggles she faced toward the end. Hannah shares what inspired her to become a counselor, her brief stint as a social media influencer, and the complex landscape of counseling in British Columbia—where anyone can call themselves a counselor and the regulatory gaps that creates. They also dive into the intersection of psychology and faith, and Hannah's current work in her parish community through the Alpha program. A thoughtful, honest conversation about vocation, vulnerability, and the deep work of walking with others.
